Adobe PDF Library Installation Guide

Introduction

This chapter explains the scope and contents of this guide, provides highlights of each chapter, describes

the organization of the information, and explains the conventions used throughout.

The Purpose of This Book

This guide is intended to provide information necessary to install and set up the Adobe PDF Library

(APDFL) and Datalogics Interface (DLI). However, it is not a replacement of Adobe’s own Adobe PDF

Library Overview document, but should be used as a supplement.

NOTE: Datalogics ports the Adobe PDF Library and DLI to the HP-UX, OS/390, OS/

400 and SGI IRIX platforms, but also supports the products on the original Adobe-

selected platforms. Except where noted, information in this Datalogics manual

applies to all platforms, not just those to which Datalogics has ported the

software.

About This Guide 1.3

What You Should Know

This book is not for developers new to application programming interfaces; therefore, it does not describe

programming concepts and techniques. The following list describes the level of experience or knowledge

required to understand this book:

• Product development knowledge in addition to programming, such as database and macro

development

• Familiarity with the process of writing applications

• Understanding of high-level language Application Programming Interfaces (APIs)

• Knowledge of programming on the specific platform of interest, including use of the corresponding

development tools

• A general understanding of the structure and contents of PDF files and the PostScript language

• Experience in managing fonts (the complete set of characters of a particular design), including the style,

arrangement and appearance of typeset matter for print or electronic display from composition

• Knowledge of the operating-system environment of the platform

You should have access to the Adobe PDF Library Applications Programming Interface (API) manual,

related Datalogics Interface documentation, and the Adobe PDF Specifications manual for your system.

You should find these documents provided within your release, accessible via the

referencelibrary.pdf document using the copy of Adobe Reader provided (or any other PDF

viewer utility).

The explanations and assumptions in this guide refer to Adobe PDF Library v6.1.1Plus and DLI v3.0 or

higher.

How This Book is Organized

The following list provides an outline of the chapters as well as a brief description of their contents. Click

on each Chapter title below to jump to its first page.

Chapter 1: "About This Guide" (This chapter) outlines the chapters to follow, explains the document

conventions used here, and lists other related documentation which you may find useful for your work.

Document Conventions

The terms note, link and bookmark are used in this book the same way they are in the user interface of

Adobe PDF Library v6.1.1Plus®, Adobe Acrobat® and Adobe Reader®. These correspond to the text

annotation, link annotation and routine entry structures (respectively) that appear in a PDF file. See the

Portable Document Format Reference Manual for a description of the PDF file format.

The following documentation conventions appear throughout the manual to help you differentiate regular

text from product and program names, and to distinguish command syntax.

• Product and program names are set in italic type.

• Multi-line examples are separated from the text and set in

Courier monospace

• Directory names and filenames are contained within the text and set in Courier monospace.

• Commands are contained within the text and set in Courier monospace.

• New terms are italicized.

• Page numbers in this book do not correspond to page numbers in the PDF file. The numbering scheme

(e.g. 4.1 or A.10) indicates the chapter number (4) or appendix letter (A) first, followed by the page

number (1 or 10), separated by a period.

supported platforms and compilers.

2.2

Adobe PDF Library Installation Guide

Supported Platforms and Compilers

The following table lists the supported platforms, operating system and compiler versions for the Adobe

PDF Library and DLI. Except where noted, support for a higher version above and beyond that listed

below is not automatically implied. Please see “Notes on Supported Platforms and Compilers” on page

2.2 (below) for more details.

Table 2-1: Supported Platforms and Version Numbers

Notes on Supported Platforms and Compilers

1 The preceding table refers to Adobe PDF Library v6.1.x and DLI v3.x releases (and higher) only. If

building your application with a prior release, please consult its accompanying documentation.

2 Except where noted, the preceding table refers to 32-bit implementations only.

3 Datalogics distributes DLI with International Components for Unicode (ICU) v2.6. Depending on

your application and system configuration, it may be easier for you to use your own ICU build. Any of

the v2.6.x series should be compatible with DLI, if it was built in a compatible manner (i.e.

corresponding tools and compiler).

Installing the PDF Library and DLI 2.3

Adobe PDF Library Installation Procedure

Platform-specific installation procedure notes follow below. After the code libraries have been installed,

documentation files should be unpacked in the appropriate areas. (They are not automatically installed as

part of the software.)

If you are reading this Installation manual prior to running the installation procedure itself (e.g. after

downloading this manual from the Datalogics website), please continue with the installation of the

software release itself first, after which the documentation files can be unpacked into the directories

created during the software install, per the directions given in “Documentation Unpacking” on page 2.22.

Windows Installation

An installation directory will be delivered with the product on CD-ROM, or made available for download

from a secure ftp user account on the Datalogics ftp site (ftp.datalogics.com). This directory

contains all the files you will need to install the Adobe PDF Library and Datalogics Interface.

Before beginning a new installation, you should uninstall any prior releases of Adobe PDF Library and

Datalogics Interface. (InstallShield itself will check for current copies of the installation; see “Repetitive

Installations” on page 2.10 for further details.) Next, locate and double-click on the Setup.exe

program, and InstallShield will guide you through the installation.

NOTE: Throughout this guide, vxxx is used to denote the version number of the

product, such as Adobe PDF Library v6.1.0Plus. This formula applies not only to the

product itself, but also to any generated files or directories which are associated

with and contain that version number.

2.4

Adobe PDF Library Installation Guide

1 An initial setup screen will appear as InstallShield loads:

2 After InstallShield has initialized, a welcome screen will appear:

Click the Next button to proceed.

3 You must accept the License Agreement in order to continue with the installation:

Click the Yes button to proceed.

4 At the Customer Information screen, enter your User Name and Company Name in the corresponding

fields:

2.6

Adobe PDF Library Installation Guide

Accept the "Anyone" radio button if any users beside yourself will be using the application, or select

the "Only for me" (current user logged in) option if you are the only person who should be using the

application.

5 Select the Setup Type and the destination folder:

While the Custom option does allow you to choose which program features you want installed, in

general practice we recommend installing all features at once. See “Selecting Features” on page 2.11

for further details.

By default, InstallShield will place the new release under the C:\Datalogics\APDFLxxx\ directory

structure, where "xxx" denotes the current Library version. (Thus a new release of Adobe PDF

Library and DLI will typically reside at the same level as previous releases, not overwrite them.) Click

Installing the PDF Library and DLI 2.7

the Browse button to select an alternate location.

6 Doublecheck the displayed installation location and click the Next button to proceed

NOTE: Versions of the Adobe PDF Library and DLI prior to APDFL v4.05 were placed

C:\Program Files\ by default. You should ensure that any old DLL files

and/or PATH definitions relating to the previous installations have been removed.

2.8

Adobe PDF Library Installation Guide

7 At this point InstallShield will begin the installation, displaying a Setup Status screen as it progresses:

8 When the completion screen appears, click the Finish button to conclude.
